Electrically operated valves – Series 86-MV-3

Precise 3/2-way valves for versatile applications

The 86-MV-3 series from AIRTEC comprises electrically actuated solenoid valves that are suitable for a wide range of applications. The valves are available in 3/2-way versions and are characterized by their high precision and reliability. With connection sizes from G1/8 to G1/4, these valves offer a flexible solution for various pneumatic systems.

The nominal diameter of the 86-MV-3 series is between 4 mm and 4.5 mm, and the valves operate in a temperature range of +5°C to +50°C. The IP 65 protection rating ensures excellent dust and water tightness, making the series suitable for more demanding operating conditions. The series supports DC voltages of 24 V and AC voltages of 230 V, making it compatible with most common control systems.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions about solenoid valves, applications and customised solutions from AIRTEC.

When is an electrically actuated valve the right choice over a pneumatically actuated one?

Electrically actuated valves are ideal for use in electrical control architectures. Solenoid valves integrate directly into PLC systems. They require no separate pneumatic control signal and allow centralized control via fieldbus or a multi-pin connector. If, on the other hand, no power supply is available, or operation is required in hazardous (Ex) areas without electrical certification, pneumatic actuation is the simpler choice.

How do ATEX versions of electrical valves differ from those of pneumatic valves?

With pneumatic valves, the ATEX version often differs little in design from the standard valve. With electrical valves, the ATEX version must always feature a specially certified solenoid, for example an encapsulated coil in which all live parts are fully enclosed. ATEX solenoid valves must therefore be ordered explicitly as such.

Are UL/CSA-approved versions available?

Yes. For export to North America, AIRTEC solenoid valves can be equipped with UL/CSA-approved solenoid coils.

What compressed air quality is required for the electrically actuated valves?

All AIRTEC solenoid valves are rated for compressed air according to ISO 8573-1:2010, Class 7:2:4 (filtered, oil-free, and dried). The pressure dew point must be at least 10 °C below the lowest ambient temperature encountered. The requirements are identical to those of the pneumatically actuated series.
